3 WAYS TO GET
ACTIVE WITH DVC!
2 LEVELS OF PLAY
At our Upper Intermediate & Competitive leagues, safety, quality of play, and player experience are the priorities. Players playing in these leagues not only have a full understanding of the game and accuracy with their skills, but they exude good sportsmanship.
At our Intermediate leagues, we aim to provide a safe and welcoming environment for all players. We encourage players to learn and improve by playing in these games. Players are expected to have a good understanding of the game, but they may not have the experience and skills we require for the higher levels.
Intermediate (B)
-
I have a thorough understanding of rules.
-
I can pass at a level 1 – Most of my passes get to the setter so they can set to 1 hitter.
-
I enjoy playing in games where there’s a set position for the setter and each person on the team gets a chance to be setter.
-
I have control of my momentum and land safely on my side of the court after going up for a hit.
-
I typically attempt to block when a hitter is front of me.
-
I get about 75% of serves in play.
Additional Notes About this Level:
-
Teams regularly attempt to make three hits per side.
-
Teams have a setter, but most of the time the setter is setting from the middle position.
-
Players in these games often have a goal to improve and advance to the upper-intermediate level.
-
Players play the position into which they rotate rather than assigned positions.
-
A solid “B” player has reasonable consistency. Skill level easily trumps height. Many “B” level hitters do not employ a standard hitting approach. A few points are scored due to execution errors but not the majority, most points have to be earned.
Upper Intermediate (BB) &
Competitive (A)
-
I know of all the technical rules of the game.
-
I have a thorough understanding of different types of sets to each hitter.
-
I can accurately serve to a zone regularly.
-
I can pass at a level 2 – Most of my passes get to the setter so they can set the outside or right side hitters.
-
I fully understand how to run a 5-1 and 6-2.
-
I am proficient at blocking, setting, passing, and hitting.
-
I know how to cover the court defensively during a serve and during a hit.
-
Play with positions: outside hitter, middle hitter, right side hitter, setter and defensive specialist.
-
Perform all skills: BLOCKING, SETTING, PASSING, and HITTING.
-
Get 90% of serves, or more, in play.
Additional notes about this level:
-
Front row hitters are able to take an approach and hit the ball consistently.
-
Teams play with positions: outside hitter, middle hitter, right side hitter, setter and defensive specialist.
-
Setters can set a basic outside, middle, and right side ball with minimal spin.
-
Upper-Intermediate players are very good players, but not as consistent as A-level players.
